Frequently Asked
Questions about
LASIK Surgery
What types of vision problems can be corrected with LASIK surgery?
Bladeless iLASIK is a surgical treatment for nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism that reshapes the cornea to improve visual focus.
Who is NOT a candidate for bladeless iLASIK?
Traditional LASIK surgery and bladeless iLASIK surgery are not for everyone. Certain factors, such as the thickness of your cornea or the strength of your eyeglass prescription, determine whether or not you may be a candidate.
That is why, before any vision correction procedure is performed, Dr. Solomon's team of eyecare professionals will conduct a detailed examination to evaluate your candidacy. Based on the results of those tests, Dr. Solomon will recommend the vision correction option best suited to your unique situation.
Is bladeless iLASIK surgery the same as the "customized" procedure I have heard so much about?
No. The term "custom" generally refers to tindividualized visual diagnosis with "CustomVue" technology which allows for customized treatment with the cool beam laser.A bladeless CustomVue LASIK surgery (also called "iLASIK") makes it possible for Dr. Solomon to deliver an unprecedented level of personalization, safety, and precision with each patient's procedure.
How do iLASIK surgery results compare with those of traditional LASIK surgery?
Clinical studies confirm that patients see better following bladeless iLASIK surgery than following a traditional LASIK surgery procedure. In general:
- More patients achieve 20/20 or better vision with bladeless iLASIK surgery.
- Patients stating a preference preferred the post-operative vision of their iLASIK-treated eye 3 to 1 over the vision of their eye treated with traditional LASIK surgery.
- Bladeless iLASIK surgery creates fewer higher- and lower-order aberrations thought to be associated with glare and halos at night.
- Compared with patients who have had a traditional LASIK surgery, bladeless iLASIK surgery patients experienced a reduced incidence of post-operative "dry eye" symptoms.
- Bladeless iLASIK surgery patients required fewer enhancement procedures.
- The precision of the iLASIK flap significantly reduces the incidence of post-operative induced astigmatism, as compared with a flap created with a microkeratome blade.
